"Three-Star Dou Saint now, not bad!"
Though still at the lower level of the Dou Saint realm, Zhou Yi was quite satisfied.
At this stage, every single star of advancement was incredibly difficult to achieve.
Besides, Pei Nanwei and Yue Mei were about to give birth.
Meanwhile, others like Xue Mei, Lin Fei, Nangong Pushe, Hong Shu, Qing Niao, Yu Youwei, Jiang Ni, Nangua, and Lu Yi had all been pregnant for several months.
Once their children were born, Zhou Yi's cultivation would skyrocket once more.
Nighttime.
Zhou Yi accompanied Queen Medusa, who had just given birth.
Holding the Queen in his arms, he planted a kiss on her delicate, mesmerizing face. Inhaling the unique fragrance she now carried, an impulse surged within him—
"I'm hungry!"
Queen Medusa: "…..."
Are you a gluttonous snake?
No, I'm just a little rascal!
Time passed. In the blink of an eye, another month had gone by.
Yue Mei and Pei Nanwei had also given birth—one bore Zhou Yi a daughter, the other a son.
"Reward One: 10 years of cultivation ×2."
"Reward Two: 10 years of lifespan ×2."
"Reward Three: Targeted Beauty Summoning Card."
"Reward Four: Netherworld Poison Flame."
"A Targeted Beauty Summoning Card?"
Zhou Yi's heart stirred. This reward came from the birth of Yue Mei's daughter—it could be used to summon a beauty from across the myriad worlds.
The "targeted" aspect meant that the summoned beauty would have some connection to Yue Mei's daughter.
"Interesting!"
Zhou Yi claimed his rewards. The Netherworld Poison Flame ranked twentieth on the Heavenly Flame List. After refining it and adding twenty years' worth of cultivation, he finally advanced to Four-Star Dou Saint.
At last, Zhou Yi had stepped into the mid-tier Dou Saint realm.
His strength had surged at least tenfold.
Feeling his immense increase in power, Zhou Yi retrieved the Targeted Beauty Summoning Card.
"Let's see who I can summon."
This was the first time he had received such a reward, and he was extremely curious.
"Use!"
As Zhou Yi activated the card, a spatial rift appeared before him—but he couldn't step through it.
The next moment—
Two figures emerged from the rift.
One dressed in white.
The other in green.
Both breathtakingly beautiful.
Both capable of toppling nations.
The spatial rift closed as the two women cautiously yet curiously studied him.
"Who are you? Did you bring us here?"
The woman in green stared at Zhou Yi's handsome face, her heart pounding, but her voice remained cool and wary.
"I am Zhou Yi. A pleasure to meet you, fairies."
Zhou Yi smiled slightly.
With just a glance, he could tell—they were not human.
They were two serpent demons.
If he wasn't mistaken—
They were Bai Suzhen and Xiao Qing.
Judging by their cultivation, though their power systems were different, they felt roughly equivalent to the Dou Ancestor and Dou Venerate realms.
"I am Bai Suzhen, and this is my younger sister, Xiao Qing. Greetings, Young Master Zhou."
Bai Suzhen gracefully bowed before speaking:
"Just now, a voice echoed in my mind, claiming it could offer me a chance to attain immortality. I was intrigued and came to see for myself. Xiao Qing was worried about me, so she followed along."
"May I ask what this so-called immortal opportunity is, Young Master?"
"I see."
Zhou Yi instantly understood—the Targeted Beauty Summoning Card had basically tricked them into coming here.
And Xiao Qing?
A bonus gift.
Buy one, get one free.
Not bad at all!
"Miss Bai, this was actually the result of me using a special artifact—I hadn't expected it to bring you and Miss Qing here."
"This is the Dou Qi Continent. You two don't seem to be from our world, but here, one can still cultivate."
"As for the immortal opportunity… I can indeed help you both. However, the method is rather unique. Why don't you two stay for now? I'll explain it to you in due time."
Zhou Yi said with a smile.
"Then we shall trouble you, Young Master Zhou."
Bai Suzhen pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement. She bowed again to express her gratitude.
She could sense that this place was not their original world.
They were unfamiliar with everything. If they acted recklessly, they could end up in danger.
For example—
Zhou Yi.
He exuded an immense sense of danger.
She was most likely not his match.
And if Zhou Yi was this powerful—how many others like him existed out there?
If there were many, then running off blindly was no different from throwing themselves into the tiger's mouth.
For now, Zhou Yi showed no ill intentions toward them. It was best to stay and observe first.
Truth be told, Bai Suzhen felt a bit regretful.
If not for her desire to attain immortality, she wouldn't have impulsively ended up here.
Zhou Yi arranged a place for them to stay.
"Sister, what do we do now?"
Xiao Qing's eyes held a trace of unease. She, too, could sense how powerful Zhou Yi was. Not to mention, his mansion housed many other formidable figures.
Otherwise, given her fiery temper, she would have exploded the moment they were forcefully taken to this unfamiliar world.
"Let's figure out the situation first."
Bai Suzhen sighed softly.
Zhou Yi didn't restrict their movements, so the two began exploring the estate, meeting other residents and gathering information.
When they discovered that Zhou Yi had dozens of wives—and was still marrying more—
Both were utterly stunned.
"I bet that Zhou guy is definitely after your beauty, Sister!"
Xiao Qing narrowed her eyes before adding:
"But… he really is handsome."
"What? Is your heart wavering? Should I go tell Young Master Zhou to marry you?"
Bai Suzhen teased.
"Sister, what nonsense are you saying!"
Xiao Qing stomped her foot in embarrassment, blushing furiously.
Truth be told—
She was a little tempted.
She couldn't explain why. It wasn't just that Zhou Yi was unbelievably handsome—
There was something mesmerizing about him.
His very presence drew her in.
Especially the aura around him—
It enticed her. It made her want to get closer.
"Xiao Qing has indeed developed feelings."
Bai Suzhen immediately understood.
"Who exactly is Young Master Zhou?"
Even Bai Suzhen herself felt an inexplicable attraction toward him.
No wonder Xiaoqing was struggling to resist.
What they didn't know—
Was that Zhou Yi possessed the Candle Dragon Martial Soul, which exerted an unparalleled allure over dragons and serpents.
Soon, the two sisters met Queen Medusa.
Perhaps because they were all snakes, the three quickly bonded.
From Medusa, Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing learned more about the Dou Qi Continent and about Zhou Yi himself.
Zhou Yi had many women—
But he treated them exceptionally well.
All of them were living… fulfilling lives.
Curiosity burned even brighter in Xiaoqing's heart.
She wanted to experience that "fulfillment" for herself.
Meanwhile, as Zhou Yi enjoyed the comfort of home—
The Dou Qi Continent was in turmoil due to the appearance of the Tianxuan Continent.
The sudden appearance of a new world was an event no one could afford to ignore— not even the Gu Clan, a family with the ancient legacy of Dou Emperors.
Upon learning of the Tianxuan Continent, Gu Yuan was eager to explore it himself, hoping to find an opportunity to ascend to the realm of Dou God. However, considering the potential dangers, he ultimately decided against venturing there personally. Instead, he dispatched elite warriors from the Gu Clan as vanguards to gather intelligence on the Tianxuan Continent.
By now, the Tianxuan Continent and the Dou Qi Continent had become connected through an interdimensional passage.
On the Dou Qi Continent's side, Zhou Yi appointed Void Devouring Flame to guard the passage. Anyone wishing to travel to the Tianxuan Continent had to pay a toll, with the fee determined by their cultivation level and the number of travelers. The stronger the individual, the higher the cost.
Similarly, on the Tianxuan Continent's side, the people of the Nine Heavens Supreme Palace had also imposed tolls for those traveling from Tianxuan to the Dou Qi Continent.
In other words, when the Gu Clan's powerhouses sought to enter the Tianxuan Continent, they had to pay a toll at the Dou Qi Continent's checkpoint. But upon their return, they would have to pay another fee to the Nine Heavens Supreme Palace for passage back.
The existence of the interdimensional passage caused a great stir in both worlds. The entrances to the passage were teeming with people every day, with a continuous flow of powerful cultivators passing through.
Amidst the commotion, Zhou Yi had once again begun expanding his harem.
This time, he was marrying the women whose unions had been arranged long ago—Han Yue, Han Xue, Ye Xinlan, Hu Jia, Liu Fei, Xue Ni, Instructor Ruo Lin, Tang Huo'er, and Lu Man.
